2014 AFL Fantasy price watch: RichmondBen Guthrie
afl.com.au
December 19, 2013Martin's fantasy stocks are at an all-time high, following his recognition as the Tigers' highest-priced fantasy player.
Coaches can select Martin as both a forward or midfielder next season for the grand price of $526,000.
Martin's consistency has always been the one question mark over his football ability, but if he can start to impose himself over the duration of games then he could be one of the competition's most sought after fantasy commodities.
Brett Deledio [MID, $514,900] and Trent Cotchin [MID, $511,300] are the next best Tiger fantasy offerings.
As in previous years, fantasy coaches can only pick up Deledio as a midfielder (not as a defender).
Nick Vlastuin has retained his dual position status in 2014, with the tough youngster likely to form a big part of the Tigers' future.
Vlastuin is listed at $375,600, having undergone a near $228,000 price rise from the start of last season.
A breakout year for Brandon Ellis has meant he has seen a sharp spike in price.
Ellis [MID, $429,300] became an integral part of Damien Hardwick's side in 2013 and that doesn't look like changing heading into next season.
Ben Lennon – the Tigers' top draft pick (No.12 overall) from the 2013 NAB AFL Draft – is a chance to play senior footy right off the bat next year.
His style as a lead-up forward is exactly what Richmond lacked in 2014 and for $233,100 he could be yours.
Former Brisbane Lion Todd Banfield is also an interesting selection by the Tigers.
Banfield did not play a game for the Lions in 2013, so his price of $145,500, as a forward, looks appealing.
